I don't mind something like that, as it is very flexible. But I have a
feeling most uses would end up just symlinking some template hooks or
config.  At which point we might be better serving the user to provide a
solution that is simpler to use (e.g., a ~/.githooks directory that is
checked for all hooks; the tricky part there would be making rules for
the case that there are system, user, and repo-level scripts for a
particular hook).
